Frame: Polished Chrome
Lens: VR28 Black Iridium Polarized

These are stunning! Pictures do not do this pair justice what so ever. I believe these were an Australia release, which have now just started coming into Oakley Stores (I think...). These are stunning! It is Brown Chrome, but it is very polished compared to the pictures. VR28 is still one of the best lens options out there, but these are definitely a classy pair. I would probably wear these to nicer events. 5 skulls!

Lens: Polarized Black Iridium

I know this is my second review, but wow are these amazing. I cannot get over how great these glasses are. I couldn't say no to the price either. (Got it relatively cheap compared to the MSRP). Again, the coverage is awesome, the fit is amazing, and the spring hinges really help a lot when wearing these all day. I'm not fond of the Black Iridium, so I'll probably end up getting that switched out, but overall, these are a winner! My second pair, and a definite keeper.

These are amazing! The fit is perfect, and the lens has great coverage. I actually never heard of these before, and was quite surprised by their quality. They were on sale at the Oakley Store near me, and were next to some Saure Whiskers. At first, I was dead set on the Whiskers, but then I saw these. They have spring hinges, which is always a plus, and fit perfectly. I highly recommend these to anyone looking for a nice, pair of sunglasses that will go well with casual and formal wear.

I was initially looking at the square whisker. However when I went to the store, it didn't fit well on my head. Then I saw the splinter.

It looked better and it fits me better. I also love the Light/Ice Iridium combination. Good thing the shop still has one in store.

While the lens design of Splinter is almost identical to Square Whisker, the frame design is much thicker and more formal. Spring hinges have also been incorporated for added durability, and the Brown Chrome frame provides a classic alternative frame option for this pair.
